is the desire of the company to ob-
tain 2oq subscribers before asking
for another franchise .and when
they are gotton it is the purpose to
install the plant at once. The
company uses the naptha system
and has plants in operation in Cle-
burne Texarlkana San Angelo
Tyler and other Texas points fur-
nishing fuel gas at $ti .50 per thous-
and feet and illuminating at $2
and as jooo feet of the gas is equal
to 3000 feet of jcoal gas 'the saving
in the operation of heating and
lighting plants can be easily esti-
mated not taking into account the
increased cleanliness .and .conven
ience. The company proposes to
put in five miles of pipe to start and
maintain a thoroughly .up-tto-daie
plant in every particular. From
the rate at which the Mr. Leeds
and his assistants .are getting sub-
scribers it is a sure tiling illiai the
desired number will be secured in a
short time aud that tiie plant will
be built in due time. The propo-
sitions of the company and the
subscribers up to this morning fal-

Below we give a comparison
showing the cheapness of gas and
its efficiency as compared with coal
as attested by thousands wlw use
gas in cities where it is to be had.:
No smoke no soot no ashes no
dirt no kindling always ready day
or night.
In St. Louis coal sells for $2.50
per ton and fuel gas sells for 90c.

The price would be equal to coal at
$5.00 per ton thus a saving of $2
per ton by using gas instead of
coal.
It is desired to secure signatures
of. at least two hundred citizens to
facilitate the organization of a Gas
Company; to put a plant at Ama-
rillo. Therefore we the undersigned
citizens of Amarillo agree to and
do hereby subscribe to take gas for
one year from the date gas is de-
livered to us on our premises for

ing prices: Fuel gas at fi.50 per

Richards Riley.
Mr. Ceo. E. Richards and Miss
Mae Riley were united in marriage
last Wednesday evening at the
home of the bride's sister Mrs.
John Edge Rev. Fincher officia-
ting. The happy couple departed
on the 7:20 train for an extended
trip to Quanah Oklahoma City
Little Rock and Hot Springs
thence to their future home in
Memphis Tenn. The bride is one
of Amanllo's most charming young
ladies while the groom is a busi-
ness man of sterling qualities.
The bride was attired in a blue
broadcloth traveling suit with hat
to match. None but the family
and immediate friends were pres-
ent at the ceremony.

MILLINERY OPENS.
Throngs of Ladles Visit and Ad-
mire the Beautiful Creations
of the Season's Art.
There was a most cheerful re
sponse on the part of the ladies yes-
terday to the invitation to the open-
ings of the various millinery stores
and parlors. -
Season after season when one
thinks the limit of beauty and at
tractiveness has been reached mod
ern styles and fashons go one step
farther and the showing this sea-
son does not only embody exquisite
millinery but cloaks suits dress
goods trimings and everything that
goes to make "Myladie's" ward-
robe complete.
AT THE FAMOUS.
A particularly beautiful showing
was made at the Famous. No
fashion guide was needed for those
who visited this beautiful array of
the season's latest. A primary at-
traction was the decorations of
white in the front millinery win-
dow. From the daintiest baby-
hood to the most exacting style for
the matron was shown in the win-
dow. "We are well pleased with our
opening clay" said Mrs. Isaacs yes-
terday. "It shows that our efforts
are appreciated more than ever.

our success comes."
WITH MISS TAYLOR.
In the millinery parlors of I). W.
Owen Miss Willie Taylor pleased
her many friends with her splendid
and beautiful showing of the sea-
son's latest styles. The ladies
showed generous appreciation of
the sovenir discount of 10 per cent
on all trimmed and pattern hats
and many selections were made.
Said Miss Taylor last evening
"Our opening was a complete suc-
cess and the ladies showed a mark
ed appreciation of our desires to
make the season the most brilliant
in styles and patterns ever shown in
Amarillo.
MRS. TYSON.
One of the beautifully decorated
parlors yesterday was that of Mrs.
Tyson who eclipsed all former ef-
forts in bringing out with complete
success the many ilustrations of
the most effective and pretty nov-
elties in the latest headgear and
they were most pleasing to the
critical eye.
In speaking of the opining Mrs.
Tyson said late yesterday "I have
never experienced a more success-
ful opening and from all indications
the trade this season will be better
than ever before. Generally every-
one was well pleased with my illus-
trations and creations in the artis-
tic showing of both street and
trimmed hats and I anticipate a
liberal patronage in view of the
many pleasing comments yesteaday.
Mrs. R. A. Nipp who very re-
cently put in a manicuring depart-
ment in connection with Mrs.
Tyson assisted in the entertain-
ment and in explaining to the vis-
itors the beneficial and satisfactory I
results to be obtained from a de-
partment of this kind.
MISSTKAVIS AT WlIITK & KIKK'S.
"Yes I til i 11k those are just love-
ly but just look at that pattern
there isn't that a perfect creation
of the milliner's art and say isn't
this a beatiful street hat?" "Yes
that is just what I want to match
my new grey and olive suit." "No
I don't think a hat so heavy is be-
coming to you as something like
this one." This was the drift of a
large part of the conversation
which took place in the millinery
parlors of White & Kirk yesterday
where Miss Travis was the charm
ing hostess of one continuous
throng of Amarillo' s most exacting
admirers of pretty styles and illus
trations. From the opening hour tin
til after the usual hour for closing
Mrs. Travis' department was busy
showing commenting and explain
ing some of the more effective and
beautiful designs. Mr. White has
endeavored to make this depart
ment the most complete ever shown
and the showing represents the
most attractive and illustrative
that money could purchase.
